I don't want anyone to be worried but I still figured everyone should know in case this does happen.
I recently received a email from a couple friends of mine stating the proboards along with many other hosts have deleted a lot of the boards that are devoted to the American pitbull terrier.
I have received no inclination that this would happen to our site here, And in fact I have had to have proboards help me with glitches that have happened on the site so they do in fact know the site is here.
But just to be on the safe side I am exploring my options on a backup site of the same name so that if they decide to delete this board, We can all go over to the back up board. All current members will receive a letter in your email in the event that they delete this board telling you the new board address.
We will try and make it look just like this one in any way we can, And the rules and everything else will remain the same. You can join under your same screen name and everything like that.
Right now it is just hearsay but I figured everyone should know, So that in the event this does happen, We can all make as smooth of a transition as possible and continue to enjoy the community we have created for ourselves here at The Dogmans Corner.

Understandable Art.
But I figured a ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. I haven't been on many sites, But from what people have told me us here and just maybe a handful of other sites have what we have. And by that I mean a peaceful educational place that people enjoy to visit, And I would sure hate to lose that.
I have a couple sites that I have been looking at that are more advanced than this as far as how they look and such. But I would need some help putting it together since it isn't easy to set up like this one was...And even this required some help from a few of my children.
I will let you and Viper know which ones I am looking at and see what you guys think of them, Game might be a valuable person to have for input as well since he has been with us from the very beginning.

Thats why I am thinking it would be a good idea to have a backup just in case.
If we don't need it great, But if they do shut us down we can transition right over to the backup and it is business as usual.
And I am with Viper and Game, We have a real good thing here and it is always enjoyable to come here....Which is just what I wanted this site to be. And I will do everything I can to make sure we always have a good educational place to learn about our dogs and help the fanciers of this fine breed.
With out proper education this breed and it's fanciers will suffer even more so than they have, are and will in the future.

I wonder if the gov't can look at the PMs and read what folks post for investigations on people. Nothing is ever private on the web.

Nothing is Private online. Any and everything can be used against you so you have to becareful what you say. Even something innocent can be takin out of context and they will have you hemmed up. I had before every thread no dogfighting allowed in this forum. It did not matter because the humaniacs believe what they believe and want APBT out of here....

Yep, Just like Hemi said anything and everything can be seen online.
Same goes for what you say on the phone, I never say anything I am not comfortable saying in front of the world and so far it has worked. So people call me paranoid but I call it a healthy suspicion on my behalf, I remember back when I though that talking on the phone inside my closet with a blanket over me was considered a secure line, Now a days I have to do things a might different if I don't want any and everyone listening in on it.
Not that I am doing anything wrong, But they listen to any and everyone and don't have to answer to anyone in the process.
